[quote=Anonymous]I would go the whole foods route personally - if your child is eating nutritionally dense foods he/she should be fine. Please read in-depth information about oils and fats in diet. There is a lot of good information available now and much of it points to using coconut oil and olive oil for cooking. I recently read that these fats play a big part in brain development! If your toddler won't eat many of the important foods, consider hiding them in meals he/she will eat. For example, my DS says he "hates" avocado, but loves "guacamole" ? I just go with it. Also, I keep a jar of finely chopped walnuts and add about 1/4 cup to his granola/oatmeal every morning, so he gets a great dose of omega-3 right there. BTW he "hates" nuts. Cooking destroys the key ingredients in healthy fats so adding nuts to cookies is useless. I bake with coconut oil, at a very low temp, creating kind of a chewy-granola-bar type cookie. DS "hates" eggs but loves french toast so i soak up 3 eggs on a saturday morning in the bread. Also I make pudding with 1/2 dozen eggs and brown rice. A spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down! he is in school and has great concentration, a calm demeanor and a healthy constitution. Good luck OP![/quote]
